New bio-secure facility opens for beaver reintroduction in North Yorkshire.

Flamingo Land in North Yorkshire has opened a new bio-secure holding facility for Eurasian beavers, developed with Forestry England and other partners. The site provides a temporary home for beavers involved in nationwide reintroduction programs, focusing on health checks and safe transport to release sites. This initiative supports the restoration of beavers as ecosystem engineers, enhancing biodiversity and habitat quality across Britain.
